Goodman Manufacturing co Model ck60-1c serial no 0001496410 , last night my downstairs was coold but my 2nd level was realy hot was not coold air this morning i went outside i found a piece ice on my unit i will like to have some help please

Could be a restriction in the meter device located near the compressor in the outdoor unit. This would be why ice was seen during the cooling season in the outdoor unit. A restriction can cause eratic pressure drops to the low side that would create a low refrigerant senario. Which creates a high pressure senario in the condenser coils and at the same time freezes at the meter device as it trys to flash from liquid to vapor.

If the fan motor on the outside unit is still coming on and the blower motor on the inside unit is still working properly, and your return air is not restricted (sometimes just a dirty filter), then your problem would be the charge in the unit. If over or under charged, the unit will freeze up, not just outside, but inside too. Have someone charge the unit with refrigerant and you should be okay. If any of the other problems exist, it will have to be looked into more. Hope this points you in the right direction. Good Luck!

Clicking sound is the contactor engaging to start the outside unit. Check for a burnt off wire at the contactor. For some reason you are not getting power to the outside unit. If you find a burnt off wire shut off all power to it then remake the connection at the point of the circuit break.

are you speaking of the outside fan or inside? compressor should be a little warm but not boiling hot. the unit could be low on freon. if low it will run a while but the compressor will overheat and shut off leaving the fan running by itself ouside. if nothing outside is running check power. if you have power check the contacted outside to make sure it's pulled in. contacters are bad about going out on goodman untis. Also ants can get under contacts.

Most air conditioners now are reverse cycle, which means that they can heat as well as cool. Cooling only units were popular many years ago due to the price difference for a reverse cycle. Today, the cost of manufacturing has dropped and it has resulted in cooling only units being virtually finished. I would suggest you get a local air con sales company to come to your house to measure up properly and determine what would be best. There are a lot of factors in installing air conditioning. IE/ The size of the house, the area it will be required to heat / cool, the amount of windows, types of walls, roof etc (Heat loading on the house) Roof and wall insulation etc etc.

You will need to post the serial number. The model number does tell me that you have a painted case, three ton coil with a fixed metering device installed, and it fits a 21" furnace or air handler. The first four numbers of the serial number will give the manufacturing date.

Right now you are at bare minimun for what your unit requires. If you are not having any problems with the unit or have not had any I would not worry about it. You need to check and make sure that your duct size on the unit is not smaller than 14" in diameter. If it is 14" or bigger you are fine.
